I have been so distracted and busy lately.
Kristopher has been sick since the first week of school. At first I thought it was just the back to school germs, and it was no big deal. Then I thought maybe it was still lingering because it was allergies. He was acting normal, just sounded stuffy and would cough at night. So it's been at least 4 weeks. Last night he woke me up a few times by this weird cough that sounded like I was going in to find barf everywhere. He was doing it in his sleep, and it was just noise, no barf. So that was good. But I called anyway today and they said the cold that is going around is usually gone within 2-3 weeks at most and to bring him in. We waited till after school ended, and took him. It's a sinus infection. He's on a kid version of the z-pack and hopefully it gets him back to normal.
So far this week, we've made bedtime very stress free and calm, and he has not had any night terrors. It's not like it's been very stressed or upsetting but still if it's rushed or we're irritated, it seems to trigger things. He's very emotional and frets stuff that he shouldn't so we just have to be extra sure to keep bedtime calming.
I think I also have a sinus infection. I'm taking Advil cold and sinus for it so hopefully I avoid a dr trip myself.
And lastly, I've been working on a big project for the PTO. I'm doing the student directory for the school and it's actually been fun. I haven't used some of these programs in at least 7 years, and it is kind of amazing how quickly it because normal again as I worked at it. I still have some work to finish up after I get more info, but it's almost done. It's been fun and I feel important this week. Now if only I could find a job doing data entry type stuff at home, I'd be living the perfect life. Ha.
It seems like everyone has a sinus problem or allergies around here right now. Hopefully that z-pack work quickly for him. That barf noise would scare me. It's no fun being miserable and going to school.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear the night terrors seem to be resolving. Hopefully everything is settling out now.
